    Got into the 2007 just now to run the engine for 5 min.

    It ran fine for 2 min.

    Then the red triangle came on, with the engine and brake warning lights.

    Turned it off and on again.

    Red triangle again, this time with VSC and brake warning lights.

    Turned it off and on again.

    Red triangle again, this time with all the warning lights.

    I hope it’s only a corroded wire like last time. I’m waiting for the garage to call back.

    Meanwhile, anybody else experienced this?

    Now's the Time to read your codes to see what cars telling you. A corroded wire great . Why you on salt or full time wet? Car sits forever turns into terrarium in season changes ? Prius aren't sitting types of vehicles!

    I don't have a code reader.

    Maybe the garage will tell you the codes they repaired

    I'm sure they will.

    My question was whether anyone else had had a similar experience. It seems no-one has.

    As there are a couple hundred reasons for the triangle to come on, and a similar number for the brake system lights to come on, it's a good chance even someone else's "similar experience" would have had unrelated causes. Best just to wait to know what the trouble codes are.
